I have a Hideout 30 RLDS at a seasonal site in Ohio. Only one air conditioner and 30 amp service. When it’s 90 degrees the air conditioning can’t cool enough. Never gave the air conditioning capacity a thought when I bought the TT. Apparently, 90 degrees is the same in any state.

90F in Arizona (with low humidity) is pretty nice when you're in the shade... 90F in Florida at 2PM (during the daily afternoon showers) is MISERABLE (in the shade or not)...
90F in Michigan when the wind is out of the north is "sort of nice" (low humidity) but when the wind is out of the south or "off the big lakes", it's "muggy and sticky" (wet southerly breezes bring high humidity)....
Inside the trailer, 90F with 50% humidity is uncomfortable when someone opens the door or turns on a stovetop burner... Depending on where the trailer is parked, it might be more comfortable outside and in other places, you're better off inside....
Add a second A/C when you can't move the trailer to a place where it's nice outside.... If the trailer is "not mobile" you can add a second A/C and run the wiring "over the roof" to power the unit. If you need to maintain the trailer's mobility, you might try a "stand alone air conditioner"... Just make sure you get one that discharges the condensation through the "hot air exhaust".... You can power it with an extension cord from the campground pedestal.
